|
1 |
Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will
deliver him in time of trouble.
|
|
|
2 |
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he
shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will
of his enemies.
|
|
3 |
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of
languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
|
|
4 |
I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I
have sinned against thee.
|
|
5 |
Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and
his name perish?
|
|
6 |
And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart
gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
|
|
7 |
All that hate me whisper together against me: against
me do they devise my hurt.
|
|
8 |
An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and
now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
|
|
9 |
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which
did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
|
|
10 |
But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up,
that I may requite them.
|
|
11 |
By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine
enemy doth not triumph over me.
|
|
12 |
And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and
settest me before thy face for ever.
|
|
13 |
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and
to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
